Auchentoshan 18

Country: Scotland

Region: Lowlands

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 43%

Score: 91 Points

The nose on this Auchie is malty and sweet with a hint of caramel candy and dried leaves, owing to its maturation largely in sherry hogsheads (with a small proportion of refill bourbon casks). The taste is smooth and well-balanced with hints of vanilla and herbs, and the finish is lingering and slightly sweet.
